The session will provide a safe, welcoming environment where women can access support, build connections, and share experiences.
Specialist professionals, who understand the unique barriers women may face, will be available to offer compassionate, non-judgemental support. The sessions will also create opportunities for peer support, enabling women to connect with other women within the local army community.
These sessions are available to all serving women and female family members of serving personnel. We want every woman who attends to feel valued, supported, and empowered.
The Women’s Space will be open on a drop-in basis from 10:00 to 14:00, with a dedicated session between 12:00 and 13:00 for women to come together, connect with their peers, and build meaningful relationships in a safe and supportive setting.
The programme will be shaped by the interests and needs of those who attend, helping to ensure future sessions are relevant, meaningful, and beneficial to the women in our military community.
